Our Jewish Community Reads!  Reading together to promote awareness of the importance of being an inclusive Jewish community.

Author Rachel Simon will speak about her book The Story of Beautiful Girl.  Her New York Times bestseller explores empathy and tolerance in the form of a love story where characters with disabilities overcome heavyweight obstacles. The book is about the lives of two people who meet living in an institution, and it follows them for four decades. One of the main characters is from a Jewish family.

A book signing will follow.  Registration is required.
